“…Valero and Giner (2006) reported that carvacrol shows more antibacterial activity than thymol. However, the combination of thymol and p-cymene shows more antibacterial activity than the single compound (Periago and Moezelaar 2001; Delgado et al 2004).…”

Satureja mutica Fisch is a highly aromatic species with interesting biological and pharmacological characteristics. This investigation was performed to evaluate the levels of inter-and intra-population variabilities of essential oil constituents and some agro-morphological characteristics of S. mutica in Iran. The essential oils of the aerial parts of plant have been analyzed by GC and GC/MS. High level of variability was found among the 58 individual plants of the seven studied populations. Coefficient of variation was the highest for essential oil content (CV = 52 %) among the populations. The essential oil content varied between 0.5 and 4.2 % (w/w). Thymol (6.5-74.6 %), carvacrol (0.9-70.4 %), borneol (0.1-10.9 %), p-cymene (0.30-14.2 %), and c-terpinene (0.1-9.9 %) were identified as the major predominant constituents of essential oils for the studied individual plants. The clustering of individual plants based on the major oil components comprised three main groups, representing carvacrol/thymol/p-cymene, thymol/p-cymene/carvacrol, and carvacrol/borneol chemotypes. Among the studied agromorphological traits, the highest levels of variability were observed for drug yield (CV = 99 %) and inflorescence length (CV = 55 %). Based on the higher essential oil content (4.2 %), drug yield (10.4 g plant -1 ), and plant height (45.9 cm), plant population from Keshanak region, because of its original habitat, is suggested as the most promising population for pharmaceutical purposes and mass production of essential oils. Thus, the variability recognized here might be considered for characterizing the large gene pool for breeding program.

“…The respiration rate was clearly affected by different EOs concentrations and dimension of infection (Cristescu et al 2002). It could be concluded that EOs had a positive influence on respiration rate of fruit, which might help in maintain fruit quality and prolonging shelf-life or storage life (Valero and Giner 2006).…”

Use of Essential Oils in Bioactive Edible Coatings: A Review

et al. 2011

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Antimicrobial and antioxidant properties of essential oils have previously been extensively reviewed. The mechanisms of action of essential oils have not been clearly identified but they seem to be related with their hydrophobic nature. Applying these natural compounds in the food industry could be a potential alternative, but its application costs and other problems, such as their intense aroma and potential toxicity, limit their use in the area of food preservation. An interesting strategy to reduce doses of essential oils while maintaining their effectiveness could be the incorporation of these natural compounds into edible/biodegradable films. This review discusses the use of essential oils as natural antimicrobial and antioxidant compounds to obtain bioactive films or coatings. The advantages and limitations are also reviewed.
